And now for today's eco-friendly tip:
Tip #3: Less gas = more money (and better health!)
o Walk or bike to work. This saves on gas and parking costs while improving your cardiovascular health and reducing your risk of obesity.
o Consider telecommuting if you live far from your work. Or move closer. Even if this means paying more rent, it could save you money in the long term.
o Lobby your local government to increase spending on sidewalks and bike lanes. With little cost, these improvements can pay huge dividends in bettering your health and reducing traffic.
